Helping Karthik

Karthik is a classmate of our beneficiary Vetrikumaran studying in AC Tech., Anna University. He has scored very good marks in 10th (1020/1100) and 12th (1139/1200). He has opted for a self supporting course without much awareness and hence he is not eligible for scholarships (B.C., 1st graduate).

He is a dedicated student and he has scored 8.8/10 an average for each semester. He is currently taking tuition for a +2 student and the student's parents will pay his mess fees. He did this for last two years. One of his professors is helping him to find a +2 student whose parent can afford his mess fees.

During the first two years, he paid the fees by getting SBI education loan. But he could not pay the interest for this. Now the SBI says it can't give loan any more unless he pays the interest.

Helping Minds helped him with Hostel Fees for this semester. Jayakumar took DD and gave the same to Karthik. With the help of his HOD, Karthik has got the college fees from SBI for this semester.
